Re: 2013 NFL Draft Order

So we have the hardest schedule of the five teams tied for the same won/loss record and we get the 15th pick instead of the 11th?

The Saints, who finished 7-9 this season, were in a five-way tie for the 11th-worst mark in the league. But they were pushed to the bottom of that group — which also includes San Diego, Miami, Tampa Bay and Carolina — on the strength-of-schedule tiebreaker.

Saints’ opponents this season posted a 133-122-1 record for a .521 winning percentage.
